Thread: hAv1c and hAv1cPlus Skin release - 800 x 480 (Transparency, custom font color)

I was going to try something with them tonight, haven't really looking into using the slider tag that much, just trying to create something that will allow me to do this without having to do too much... so if you think that the SD tag would work better, let me know.

ok, here's a little preview of the text color preset chooser:



Still working on location and look, etc...

Clicking on any of the colors will immediately change the text color. Also, you can see the color over the background so you can choose the one that works with the background chosen...

Still working on the completely user customizeable skin font colors...

The new custom slider support would allow you to do the RGB sliders to select a color.. you'd probably have to press a button to display a preview menu/screen to preview it though.

here's a different background/skin font chooser:

Slider Question

So, how would I set it up?

How would I round those numbers up to the nearest whole number? And how do I show the labels before I click "Test Text"

Here's the pertinent info from my .skin:

Upon First opening the TextColor.skin:

Moving sliders more and clicking "test" again:


Getting closer...

Before this was enabled, to change the text color, one would have to open the color.skin in a text editor (notepad) or the skineditor and change the values manually, then load the skin to check if it's the right color. When this is complete, it will be changed on the fly and changes take effect on pressing either "test" or "save" (not shown in screen shots above) This helps with the new transparent capabilities so that if you choose a dark background and want a light color you can select it on the fly. If you want to match your dash lights, you can fine tune the color right there in the car. Many possibilities with this.

Use \ instead of / on your EVAL commands and it should work.

That worked, havic plus skin uploaded and on main page...

Awesome, downloading to try it ...
